NBA: Two hands can’t carry championship rings

On September 29, the Warriors' affiliate team won the summer league championship.

Stephen Curry lost to the Kings' Evans in the Summer League Most Valuable Player selection.

Curry averaged 25.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game in the summer league and shot 42.1% from three-point range.

Evans' statistics are even more explosive, averaging 32 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game.

Talents emerge from generation to generation, and fierce competition begins when rookies enter the league. Whoever runs in front in the initial stage will get more attention.

On October 3, the Warriors’ media day, the team took custom photos.

Yue Yi took a photo with three newcomers.

Yue Yi hugged Curry and took a photo.

Yue Yi took another photo with Jordan, Gibson, Green, and Curry.

Three first-year rookies, one sophomore, and Yue Yi himself is only a third-year student.

This may be the Warriors' future core lineup.

People in the Warriors are a little surprised as to why Yue Yi is so enthusiastic about these newcomers. Last year, he paid special attention to the second-round pick Jordan from the beginning. This year, he is also particularly good to the three newcomers.

The core of the team has the style of a boss, which is a good thing for the team.

The Warriors' lineup for the new season is: centers DeAndre Jordan and Dennis.

Power forward Rasheed Wallace, Gibson, Aite.

Small forwards Jackson and Green.

Shooting guards Yue Yi and Belinelli.

Point guards Kidd, Curry, Watson.

Dennis is a blue-collar center who can do hard work. At the age of 28, he averaged 6.8 points, 7.7 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game with the Raptors last year.

Aite is a player at the end of the bench who can play the fourth and fifth positions. He was signed as a backup to prevent injuries.

After the Warriors traded away Biedrins to free up the starting lineup for DeAndre Jordan, they made several more transactions during the offseason. The team added three rookies to the team, and the players they acquired were all bench role players. On paper, they looked strong. It is falling instead of rising.

Today's Warriors lineup looks really old and young.

However, during the transaction, the Warriors received a 2010 first-round pick from the Hornets.

None of the three newcomers made it to the starting lineup for the Warriors. After all, the Warriors reached the Western Conference semifinals last season. They are not weaklings who missed the playoffs and do not pursue records.

The core lineup of the team is stable and it is a strong and competitive team. It is not easy for newcomers to get a starting position in the Warriors. It requires a lot of opportunities.

Curry came on the bench for Kidd.

Green came on the bench for Jackson.

Gibson came on as a substitute for Rasheed Wallace.

At the beginning of the preseason, the team began to adjust in actual combat, and Nelson gave the rookies a lot of playing time.

Three rookies are really a lot. The team flew to other cities to play away games, and the backpacks of the veteran players were all grabbed by the three rookies.

Jordan, a sophomore, was also lucky enough to bid farewell to the experience of backpacking, and someone else was carrying his bag.

As someone who has just had some experience, Jordan taught the three of them a lot of experience in serving big bosses.

Pay attention to what you should bring in your backpack.

As everyone knows, in terms of the actual age of the team, he, Jordan, is the youngest.

But so what, he has been playing in the NBA for one year.

Yue Yi's bag was snatched away by Curry, which made Green and Gibson extremely envious.

After all, it is an honor to give Yue Yi a backpack.

On the playing field, as a shooting guard, Yue Yi often plays for point guard Curry. Whenever Curry hesitates outside the three-point line, Yue Yi either encourages or scolds, but it all means the same thing: take action when it’s time to take action. Take action without any hesitation.

Even if the shot fails, I won't blame you, I will protect you.

But if you don't take a shot when you have the opportunity and hesitate to pass the ball, then I will scold you.

Opportunities on the court are often fleeting and there is no room for hesitation, and if you take a shot after hesitation, your hit rate will drop.

Yue Yi is more interested in Curry than he was in Jordan last year. He takes him with him during training, takes him with him when eating, and takes him with him for everything except going home to sleep.

And on the court, Yue Yi, who is the top player, deliberately keeps more of the ball in his own hands for Curry, in order to pass more passes to Curry and give him more chances to take action.

Every great scorer is fed by enough shot rights in the early stage. Yue Yi is willing to sacrifice his shot rights to feed Curry.

On October 29, the regular season opener started.

The Golden State Warriors challenge the Houston Rockets away from home.

On the Warriors plane, some teammates read magazines, some played cards, and some slept with headphones on.

Yue Yi and Curry sat together and talked about some tactical cooperation in the team's backcourt.

"Shooting guards and point guards can also have good pick-and-roll cooperation. Although there is no inside player to step forward to cover, the quality of the screen is higher, but the guard can initiate the pick-and-roll faster and be more changeable."

"When both players can shoot three-pointers, break through, pass the ball, and shoot mid-range shots, the combination of these two players is extremely lethal."

"Boss, don’t you rarely shoot three-pointers?"

"Well, you can shoot, don't worry, my three-pointer will be developed soon."

"That's true. When the boss first entered the league, breakthroughs and passing were not developed. With your talent, three-pointers are not easily available."

"That's it, Stephen, from now on our group will be called the Splash Brothers"

"Splash Brothers? That’s a cool nickname."

At the Toyota Center, the two teams started the opening game of the new season. The

Warriors sent out the starting lineup of DeAndre Jordan, Wallace, Jackson, Yue Yi, and Kidd. The

Rockets’ lineup is not competitive. Last season, the team’s biggest star, Bynum, was killed by his own actions. His trading value plummeted, and he was sold to the 76ers at a low price by the Rockets during the offseason.

This season’s Rockets are made up of a bunch of rookies who have just entered the league and young players in their second and third years. The rest are basically high-paid, low-performance, and bad contracts.

The salary regulations of NBA teams include a salary cap and a minimum wage line. If the overall salary of a team is lower than the minimum wage line, it is necessary to pay the shortfall to the league. It is better to sign a high-paying, low-performance contract than to give the money to the league for nothing. At least there is some value. The

Warriors played tepidly, and the Rockets' newcomers were full of energy, but it was obvious that they were energetic but could not play effectively.

A mature team has rich technical and tactical levels, and each position can be effectively linked.

The Rockets and the Warriors are several levels behind in this regard. At

5 minutes and 24 seconds in the first quarter, Curry, wearing an orange No. 30 jersey, started his NBA debut.
